The U.S. Geological
Service issued a report in April ('08) that only scientists and oilmen
knew was coming, but man was it big. It was a revised report
(hadn't been updated since '95) on how much oil was in this area
of the western 2/3 of North Dakota; western South Dakota; and extreme
eastern Montana ... check THIS out:

The Bakken is the
largest domestic oil discovery since Alaska's Prudhoe Bay, and has
the potential to eliminate all American dependence on foreign oil.
The Energy Information Administration (EIA) estimates it at 500 billion
barrels. Even if just 10% of the oil is recoverable... at $107
a barrel, we're looking at a resource base worth more than $5.3 trillion.

'When I first briefed
legislators on this, you could practically see their jaws hit the
floor. They had no idea.' says Terry Johnson, the Montana Legislature's
financial analyst.

'This sizable find
is now the highest-producing onshore oil field found in the past
56 years,' reports The Pittsburgh Post Gazette. It's a formation
known as the Williston Basin, but is more commonly referred to as
the 'Bakken.' And it stretches from Northern Montana, through North
Dakota and into Canada. For years, U.S.oil exploration has
been considered a dead end. Even the 'Big Oil' companies gave up
searching for major oil wells decades ago. However, a recent
technological breakthrough has opened up the Bakken's massive reserves
and we now have access of up to 500 billion barrels. And because
this is light, sweet oil, those billions of barrels will cost Americans
just $16 PER BARREL!

That's enough crude
to fully fuel the American economy for 41 years straight.
